Treftz Limousin

Treftz Limousin, Limousin cattle, Westport, SD, is a family-run operation in southeastern South Dakota near Sioux Falls. Glenn Treftz has been raising Limousin cattle for more than ten years and maintains herd health through regular evaluations and registry documentation. Animals graze on rotational pastures and spend time in open barns designed to support social behavior and comfort.

The operation focuses on gentle handling to develop calm temperaments while preserving the breed’s natural muscling and adaptability for diverse producers. A low-stress weaning program helps young cattle transition smoothly, and careful record-keeping ensures transparency for prospective herds. Visitors to the farm note a welcoming atmosphere and well-behaved stock that reflect the Treftz family’s attention to daily care. Treftz Limousin participates in the American Limousin Association to uphold breed standards and to provide traceable records for each animal. The farm’s rolling fields have been in the family since the 1970s, giving each generation a deep connection to the land and livestock.
